[antlr-interest] ANTLR building and Maven 2

[Jim Idle]

So, I went to markmail.org and typed in Maven. This gave me 365 messages, 133 of which are from me. Being too MANY hits, I added the word problem. The first hit against that search gives:
 
http://markmail.org/message/z5e4dtwdml3g4q5u
 
Which gives you the answer. I guess it isn’t mostly blank after all.
 
You can also use markmail to find:
 
http://antlr.markmail.org/search/?q=maven+archetype
 
The Google search:
 
antlr maven archetype
 
Returns the ANTLR page about archetypes as the first hit and 279,000 other pages, at least some of which reference it. If I just type ‘antlr maven’ then I get some false leads, but I instantly notices that some of these leads are on antlr.org so I use: site:antrl.org and the top hit is a wiki page referring to the official documentation, which as far as I know contains everything you need except archetype details.
 
So I am guessing that you have your own versions of markmail.org and google. But, if you don’t like the docs then nobody is forcing you to use it.

Missed this earlier.

No, actually I didn't.
 
A 10 second google search will point you at:

http://www.antlr.org/wiki/display/ANTLR3/Building+ANTLR+Projects+with+Maven

If you have any pointers to why this does not give you step by step instructions, please let me know and I will try and make it more foolproof.

I guess the fact that this page didn't show up in my Google search when I went looking for it might have been a contributing factor?  You know, kind of like how your other link, when I searched on "maven" gave me a page that was three-quarters blank?
